This number called and tried to get me to turn on my computer so he could talk me through a malicious spyware removal.

They would definitely have gotten people to do this.  Then they would have had their personal information.

When I answered, nobody answered.
I do not like being pestered, and having my schedule disrupted by nuisance phone calls.

called at 10:30pm - no identity - if not answer this of call

This person seemed to have found my last name online and asked if I had several computer problems regarding windows.  I told him I don't use microsoft products then he started saying some obsene things so I hung up on him

These people keep calling using different numbers trying to offer computer services.  This is a scam.  They are rude and persistant.  Just hang up.  Do not give them any personal info.

Just got a call in Alberta from this number.  He said it was regarding windows and wondered if I was having a nice day.  I told him I was until he called to try to scam me & told him to f off :)

Getting call in Sask regularly from this number, when I answer no one talks back. Getting VERY annoyed to say the least !

Hi, I am in the UK, and got a call today from this international number apparently doing some googling originates from Texas!, what the f**k is going on?

I didn't answer this phone call. When i get a call and i do not recognize the number i don't answer. This is the 4 such call this week. Really starting to tick me off.

no answer...

These guys are persistant!, 2 times i brushed them off! and they still insist my computer is infected and crashing the network ... WTF who are these guys?

Just got a phone call from this number.  They asked for my stepfather and when I said he wasn't home they asked who I was and I said who I was.  When I asked who they where they hung up.  When I phoned them back the number was not in service.  Been getting a lot of weird phone calls like this since this past Sunday, hoping they stop soon

I own a small clothing store and this person called saying he wanted to buy my "product" (he didn't seem to know it was clothing) and take it back to India. Actually, first he asked for several people by name who don't exist, before asking to speak to the owner. He said repeatedly that he's in India, even though this is a US number. He said he would need me to come get him at the airport. You know, because clothing stores do that. It was a pretty long conversation (mostly because he kept having to repeat himself) but I suspect they think I'm a sucker now and will continue to call.

Im in the uk and this number and several other numbers from the usa called to try and arrange a surveyor to come and measure up for windows.said the company was uniplas in wolverhampton.very suspicious

Said he was calling about windows - told him I had already reported him to csis and the ctrc -. He hung up - don't expect to hear from them again

From toronto

A woman called me from this phone number. She said that she worked at Microsoft.
She had received a report from my computer. It was mentioned that my computer would be infected with virus.
The woman offered me that Microsoft would scan my computer on viruses. There was much noise in the phone connection. Her voice was hard to understand. There were many voices in the background to make me believe that she called me from a callcentre . But when I told her I did not believe that she worked for Microsoft, she quickly hung up...
Do not believe such calls !!

The scam always starts the same way: the phone rings at someone's home, and the caller – usually with an Indian accent – asks for the householder, quoting their name and address before saying "I'm calling for Microsoft. We've had a report from your internet service provider of serious virus problems from your computer."

Dire forecasts are made that if the problem is not solved, the computer will become unusable.

The puzzled owner is then directed to their computer, and asked to open a program called "Windows Event Viewer". Its contents are, to the average user, worrying: they look like a long list of errors, some labelled "critical". "Yes, that's it," says the caller. "Now let me guide you through the steps to fixing it."

The computer owner is directed to a website and told to download a program that hands over remote control of the computer, and the caller "installs" various "fixes" for the problem. And then it's time to pay a fee: £185 for a "subscription" to the "preventative service".

The only catch: there was never anything wrong with the computer, the caller is not working for Microsoft or the internet service provider, and the owner has given a complete stranger access to every piece of data on their machine.Matt, a Londoner who has recently set up his own company, had just arrived home at 7pm when the phone rang and someone with an Indian accent asked for him by name, quoting his address. "It's Windows tech support here," said the caller. "We have reason to believe that there's a problem with your computer. There have been downloads of malware and spyware, and they're slowing down your computer."

These guys are morons and criminals. No matter how many times you demonstrate to them you aren't falling for their scam they continue to call and to tell me that my computer is filled with viruses. Auto-dialer or not you would imagine they would be taking notes and opt not to call back since every single time that they call I tell them to go to hell and to stop bothering me but the calls continue. Honestly, the guys deserve long, hard jail-time. They're criminals with no moral code.

A lady with an indian accent "from Microsoft" just called me at work, told me to look at some error events. She only referred to me by my last name, tried to guide me to a website (which I didn't log on to) called www.malpha-something, I didn't get the rest as I couldn't understand her accent anyways.  I hung up on her.  She could not hear me, there was a lot of background noise, and she kept telling me to hold.  I stayed on for a bit, and got mad that she wasn't hearing me.  She kept saying "Right?" and referring to me as "Ma'am".  I haven't tried to call the number back, and she didn't call again.  I immediately emailed my office manager to install some anti-virus on my computer.  She told me that someone is trying to hack me and wants to steal my identity and credit card information.  It was just very suspicious although I did get very scared at first.

Got a call from this number.  Got a similar call yesterday too - different number though.  Nobody on other side in both cases.  They just hang up.  I blocked their numbers on my home phone - hopefully no more nuisance calls from them will get through.
